Hi, I have attached an excel file
I want to set in it that I will type the time 809 and
it will translate it to 08:09 time format with text functions.
Thank you for your help and reply to the file.
Thank you very much!!! Leah

Hi, the formula you gave me here helps me a lot.
Now in the hours I type 0018 and it is received like this - :18
How can you set it to be written 00:18?

When you enter 0018 in a 'General' formatted cell, Excel ignores the leading zeroes. In such a case, the formula joins an empty string with ":18"
Knowing that these type of entries may occur, format columns B and D as text first. Then enter 0018 and Excel will not remove the leading zeroes.

It might be easier to do as Riny suggested, but I just added an "IF" clause at the beginning of my original formula. If the LEN of the number is less than 4 use 0 otherwise use the LEFT numbers. Whichever works best for you. 🙂
